“I’m 21 and he’s 33. I’m about to graduate college and get a job. He’s the VP of a tech start-up. I’m trying to get drunk on the weekends for under $10, he goes to clubs and gets bottle service. He has a house, I live in an apartment near campus. We have almost nothing in common, but I love that. He is different than my friends in a good way and he helps me realize I need to focus on my career more after I graduate. He likes me because I keep things young, fresh, and really funny.” - Dating an older man at Meetville.com!

“Dating up is a good idea if you are looking for someone who is mature. I like my current boyfriend, even though it has only been three months, because I feel safe, comfortable, and secure with him. When I dated guys my age, I had to pay for dinner, and concerts, and their lives. With my new boyfriend, I don’t even carry a wallet around with me.”—Ashley P., 23
